Guest bluprinturbo Guests Posted 20/06/07 01:33 PM Share Posted 20/06/07 01:33 PM its your handbrake.next time you can hear it slow down and pull on your handbrake just enough to very slightly move the pads.just idle along slightly pulling up the lever and you should hear it stop.

I understand y u would say its the handbrake, because the noise happens in a revolutionary manner (wheels spinning) hence the handbrake.If its the handbrake it should occur all the time, I dont hear it driving normally, I only hear the noise when accelerating hard and on boost. Just seems logical to think boost leak as its an air type sound not really a rubbing sound.bluprinturbo Im not, not agreeing with u as I dont have a clue and its something ill definately look into. Has this happend to you?How much to get fixed?What do I tell the mechanic to look for?Thx Mike... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
